4. Rip What?

Every time I say the name, people get confused. But first, let me start by saying that anyone who really knows me, knows that I am the most coordination challenged individual on the Earth. Some people trip over things, while I trip over the air. It's with that knowledge that my family thinks I am crazy for even daring to try such a thing.

It's called a Ripstik. I was first introduced to it by two cool ladies and I had no interest in trying it. Until now. For anyone unfamiliar, imagine a skateboard on crack. But alas, I have mastered this shit.

I have been secretly obsessed with one of those since 2010, but didn't have the guts to buy myself one since I seem to only see tweens do it. How long did it take you to learn it? What do you think? Recommend 10/10?

i totally recommend it. i think it's amazingly fun and i use it to decompress after a stressful day. it took me three days in order to get it down. i thought it would take a lot longer but if you pay attention to why you are falling, it is a lot easier to learn it.
